Re: PCAN-miniPCIe with SocketCAN

Post by acarrillo » Mon 29. Mar 2021, 22:08

Hello,

I am bringing up a similar system to the poster above, and am experiencing the same symptom: I can write, but I cannot read. I have confirmed that my CAN bus-connected end device is terminated correctly, and I can receive frames at its expected bitrate when connected to a CAN-USB dongle and my developer laptop. However, when I try to receive frames over the PCAN-miniPCIe card, and with the non-mainline `pcan` kernel module loaded with NETDEV support and `usemsi=1`, I am not able to receive any messages.

Here is the `dmesg` output when the `pcan` module is loaded:

Code: Select all

pcan: Release_20210119_n (le)
pcan: driver config [mod] [isa] [pci] [pec] [dng] [usb] [net] 
pcan 0000:10:00.0: using bridge 0000:00:1d.0 INT A to get IRQ 23
pcan 0000:10:00.0: PCI->APIC IRQ transform: INT A -> IRQ 23
pcan 0000:10:00.0: PCAN-miniPCIe sub-system id 5h (2 channels)
pcan: fallback into INTA mode IRQ23 (err 1)
pcan: PCB v4h FPGA v1.3.0 (mode 3)
pcan: - pci/pcie device minor 0 found
pcan: - pci/pcie device minor 1 found
usbcore: registered new interface driver pcan
pcan: registered CAN netdevice can0 for pci hw (251,0)
pcan: registered CAN netdevice can1 for pci hw (251,1)
pcan: major 251.
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): can0: link becomes ready
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): can1: link becomes ready
I am worried in particular about this message:

Code: Select all

pcan: fallback into INTA mode IRQ23 (err 1)
I can `cansend` and see them return via loopback, but I can't actually receive frames from my CAN line:

Code: Select all

# cat /proc/pcan
